Sports Min asks NSFs to amend constitution

The Sports Ministry issued a letter to all the National Sports Federations asking them to amend their constitution in accordance with the sports code by 31st Jan, failing which their recognition by the Govt may be impacted.

"The Government issued a letter to all the National Sports Federations today asking them to adopt the age and tenure provisions of the sports code. The concerned NSF is requested to expedite the process and bring the proposal for amendment in the next General Body Meeting," sports secretary P K Deb said on Friday.

"The letter said this may be treated as most immediate and a reply in this regard may be sent by 31-01-2013. The NSFs are also advised that continuation of their recognition by Govt. may be impacted if the already agreed amendments are not carried out," he added.

Regarding the suspended Indian Boxing Federation's (IABF) claim to have taken the first step towards regaining recognition from the International Boxing Association by preparing the draft of an amended constitution which would be compliant with the AIBA statute, Deb said the Ministry would have to see whether it is in consonance with the sports code.

"Hopefully, IABF will send us the copy of the draft of an amended constitution and we will have a look at it and check whether it is in consonance with the sports code."

He also said that the Ministry has written a letter to AIBA asking it make suitable arrangements for the Indian boxers to take part in upcoming international competitions.

"We have written to AIBA on a very specific issue...in the coming months Indian boxers will be participating in about four events and since at the moment we don't have either IOA and IABF, who will send in the application of those competitions, who will select the team?

"So we have asked AIBA to put in a suitable arrangement so that our teams can participate preferably under our own flag," said Deb.

Duterte proposes another UN August 21, 2016 Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte railed against the United Nations today after it called for an end to the wave of killings unleashed by his war on drugs, saying he might leave the organisation. Duterte also said the Philippines will invite China and African nations to form another global organisation in place of United Nations, as world body is not doing enough to address hunger and terrorism. There appears to be human rights working for terrorist and mafia in third world to keep their states in dire state. Two UN human rights experts last week urged Manila to stop the extra-judicial executions and killings that have escalated since Duterte won the Presidency. About 900 suspected drug traffickers have been killed since he came to power after winning the election on May 9.
